A bad Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) valve can lead to increased pressure in the crankcase, which may cause oil to leak from seals and gaskets, potentially resulting in oil blowing out of the oil pan. However, while a malfunctioning PCV valve can contribute to these issues, it is not the sole cause of oil blowing out of the oil pan. Other factors, such as excessive pressure from worn piston rings or a clogged ventilation system, can also play a role. Regular maintenance and inspection of the PCV system are important to prevent such problems.
